I ride aggressive and fast compared to most commuters I see; I use BMX pedals. (They could be more accurately described as

spiked!)
I would hypothesize that riders who get into (or back into) urban riding from a road racing (whether or not they actually raced), mountain biking, or fixed gear background tend to use clipless, while those who started out as urban riders (not riding fixed gear) tend to use some sort of flat pedals.
